Bourne End Village Show

 

Bourne End Village Show

This has been updated as the winner of the child cup was shown as Isla Parker where it should have read Isla Cooper. Our apologies.

 The annual village show was back in strength this year to the delight of the judges who commented that so many community shows are disappearing.

 Valerie Crawley again won the overall shield, with Maggie Cassidy coming a close second. Both had 16 different awards which is a strategy for overall success. The more you enter, the more you may win! We should all remember this next year.

 Gordon Rolfe won the Douglas Dean Rose bowl, while Isla Cooper won the child cup (competing in adult categories where she won first prize for her cucumber)

 Cream teas and Prosecco rounded off the day.

Planning Application to redevelop Bourne End Mills Industrial Estate

As you may have seen from the local press, plans have been submitted for the redevelopment of the site. In essence, this is along the lines of the commercial development proposals made in 2008. Modifications have been made to meet the council's objections made at the time. Rather than going into any detail here, it would be helpful if as many people as possible could examine the proposals and feed comments to committee members of the Village Association. Alternatively you might like to make comments here on the blog. The plans can be viewed on line via the planning portal.  The reference is: 4/02245/12/VOT The following link should get you there: http://www.dacorum.gov.uk/planonline/AcolNetCGI.gov?ACTION=UNWRAP&RIPNAME=Root.PgeResultDetail&TheSystemkey=206660
